Red Roses. Not Red Flags.

Letters to My Ex Boyfriend


Listen Later

Day dreams weaved in my lashes..

crow's feet and lip creases. I beg you, don't leave me.

shoulders back, the sun cries. sidewalks flood, we're all tied up.

the sky broke loose the night I heard you lie.

a flood gate released a washing of bleeding hearts.

I see you in a different light So I tilted my hat and went for a ride.

I hope you know It's your mouth that wakes tomorrow.

There's a secret about you that sets my skin on fire.

making Angels in all the ashes, I would rather stare into the flames

accept and break. upfront and acknowledged.

I beg you, please don't leave me.

Don't you see,

It makes me sick to think you whispered to anyone the way you sing to me.

----------------

I'll do my best to tip toe out the door without a sound.

I know you're wide awake staying quiet till I'm not around.

silence has always been the fence, dividing us,

standing so tall.. Are we too tired to climb?

Maybe its the fear of the fall?

or the over all disappointment when vulnerability is all that's left to hide?

I have nothing left to say.

I did those things and I felt I was doing what I was allowed to,

Since I've watched you do it so many times, before.

I have done so much forgiving, Enough, for the both of us....

Time spent cutting through demons.

limbs by limbs.

as sickening as they've been, I never turned too far.

However, your stomach turns when you go opening the doors, looking for mine.

The sword is still swinging.

par to your wish I'll tip toe out of sight.
